Indeed I read where David said we were having same issues on another list.
I changed to Gmail because of these problems so would recommend that to
people. Like others on the other list we still retain or bt accounts but
not for lists.

Subject: When you see "Bulk"
Hello everybody
We have been experiencing problems with some providers, primarily BT over
here in the UK, who insist on putting group mail with the precedence
marked as 80 into spam folders, and adding the “Bulk” flag to the subject
line of subsequent messages.
This has been occurring quite a lot lately on list. So we need to ask for
your cooperation on this issue because it threatens the group as a whole.
If you respond to a message which has “Bulk” in the subject line, we need
you to please take the time to remove it. This issue is an important one,
so much so that we will have to consider taking remedial action against
those who do not cooperate on this issue.
At the moment, I prefer to rely on voluntary cooperation. I shall try to
develop a filter so that the subject line is edited at the server level.
However, effective as of now, if a user persistently doesn’t cooperate
with us, we shall have to consider putting them into moderation mode until
they do. This is something which we’d really rather not have to do as it
causes us work. But we do need to think about the group as a whole, and
we need to ensure that we don’t get spammed by other providers.
We would also suggest that BT users consider other options regarding mail
providers when they join groups such as ours. I would remind them that we
offer free E-Mail accounts to those who would like them, as long as they
agree not to abuse the service.
Thank you in advance for your cooperation.
Kindest regards
Gordon
